Kenophytes in Different Forest Types of Ukraine 18/2 • 2019, 289–312 DOI: 10.2478/hacq-2018-0013 Kenophytes in different forest types of Ukraine Viktor Onyshchenko1 Key words: forest, vegetation, Abstract alien plants, kenophytes, invasion, The article aims to 1) describe the distribution of non-native species of vascular habitats. plants (only kenophytes, i. e. naturalized species introduced after the 15th cen- tury) in different types of forests and different biogeographical regions of Ukraine; Ključne besede: gozd, vegetacija, 2) compare proportions of kenophytes in forests of different areas; 3) detect statis- tujerodne rastline, kenofiti, invazija, tically significant changes in the occurrence of kenophytes over the last 80 years. habitati. The material consists of 2701 relevés sampled in 1990‒2018. They were taken from Ukrainian phytocoenological publications and databases. In Ukraine, as in other European countries, the highest proportion of kenophytes (percentage of species number per relevé) is in floodplain forests (up to 9.1% in willow and pop- lar forests). The lowest proportion is characteristic for bog woods (0%) and most types of mountain forests. Among biogeographical regions, the highest values were found in the flatland areas of the Steppic region and the forest-steppe part of the Continental region. The most frequent species are Impatiens parviflora (predomi- nantly in broadleaved woods, absent in relevés from the steppic biogeoregion) and Erigeron canadensis (pine woods on sand). Comparison with 1466 older relevés sampled in 1950–1989 allows us to make a conclusion that the proportion of kenophytes increased at least in one habitat type (oak-hornbeam forests). Izvleček V članku smo želeli 1) opisati razširjenost tujerodnih rastlinskih vrst (samo keno- fitov, to je naturaliziranih vrst, ki so se pojavile po 15. stoletju) v različnih gozdnih habitatnih tipih in v različnih biogeografskih regijah v Ukrajini; 2) primerjati deleže kenofitov v gozdovih v različnih območjih; 3) prikazati statistično značilne spremembe v pojavljanju kenofitov v zadnjih 80. letih. Podatke predstavlja 2701 popis, ki so bili narejeni v obdobju med 1990 in 2018. Uporabili smo fitoceno- loško literaturo in podatkovne baze iz Ukrajine. V Ukrajini, kot tudi v ostalih državah v Evropi, je najvišji delež kenofitov (odstotek vrst na popis) v poplavnih gozdovih (do 9,1% v vrbovih in topolovih gozdovih). Najnižji odstotek je značilen za barjanske gozdove (0%) in večino habitatnih tipov gorskih gozdov. Med bioge- ografskimi regijami je najvišji delež v nižinskih predelih stepske regije in gozdne stepe v kontinentalni regiji. Najbolj pogosti vrsti sta Impatiens parviflora(prevla - duje v listopadnih gozdovih, odsotna je v popisih iz stepske biogeografske regije) Received: 13. 4. 2018 in Erigeron canadensis (v borovih gozdovih na pesku). S primerjavo 1466 starejših Revision received: 4. 12. 2018 popisov, narejenih med leti 1950 in 1989 smo prišli do zaključka, da se je delež Accepted: 5. 1. 2019 kenofitov povečal vsaj v enem habitatnem tipu (hrastovo-gabrovi gozdovi). 1 M.

The highest proportion of kenophytes was found in riparian woods. The lowest proportions were in mountain forests and mire wood- lands. The most frequent kenophytes of European woods turned out to be Impatiens parviflora (21.1% of total fre- quency of kenophytes), Padus serotina (8.8%), Robinia pseudoacacia (7.5%). The highest number of occurrences of kenophytes belongs to phanerophytes and therophytes (for native species hemicryptophytes and phanerophytes). Species originating in Europe constitute 47% of the to- tal number of kenophytes in European woods, and their total frequency is 22% of total frequency of kenophytes.

  • Romania: Danube Delta Integrated Sustainable Development Strategy
    Romania: Danube Delta Integrated Sustainable Development Strategy About the Danube Delta Region The Danube Delta is one of the continent’s most valuable habitats for specific delta wildlife and biodiversity. Established as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and a Ramsar site in 1990, it is the Europe’s second largest delta, and the best preserved of European deltas. The most significant physical and ecological feature of the Danube Delta is its vast expanse of wetlands, including freshwater marsh, lakes and ponds, streams and channels. With an area of 3,446 km2, is the world’s largest wetland. Only 9% of the area is permanently above water. The Delta hosts extraordinary biodiversity and provides important environmental services. It is the home of over 1,200 varieties of plants, 300 species of birds, as well as 45 freshwater fish species in its numerous lakes and marshes. There are 16 strictly protected areas in the delta where no economic activities are allowed, and areas for ecological rehabilitation and buffer zones between economical areas where tourist activities are permitted as long as the environment is protected. Dual Challenge in Developing the Danube Delta A dual challenge for the sustainable development of the Danube Delta is the conservation of its ecological assets and improvement of the quality of life for its residents. The Danube Delta is the largest remaining natural delta in Europe and one of the largest in the world. It is also the only river that is entirely contained within a Biosphere Reserve. It is important to conserve all of its ecological assets. 1 Danube Delta is perhaps one of the least inhabited regions of temperate Europe, with only about 10,000 people in one town (Sulina) and about 20 scattered villages.

The Study has been undertaken to define priority wetland and floodplain rehabilitation sites as a component of the Pollution reduction Programme. The present report addresses the identification of former floodplains and wetlands in the Danube River Basin, as well as the description of the current status and evaluation of the ecological importance of the potential for rehabilitation. Based on this evaluation, 17 wetland/floodplain sites have been identified for rehabilitation considering their ecological importance, their nutrient removal capacity and their role in flood protection. Most of the identified wetlands will require transboundary cooperation and represent an important first step in retoring the ecological balance in the Danube River Basin. The results are presented in the form of thematic maps that can be found in Annex I of the study. The study was prepared by the WWF-Danube-Carpathian-Programme and the WWF-Auen-Institut (Institute for Floodplains Ecology, WWF-Germany), under the guidance of the UNDP/GEF team of experts of the Danube Programme Coordination Unit (DPCU) in Vienna, Austria.

  • Sedimentary Microplastic Concentrations from the Romanian
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Sedimentary microplastic concentrations from the Romanian Danube River to the Black Sea Iulian Pojar1, Adrian Stănică1*, Friederike Stock2, Christian Kochleus2, Michael Schultz1 & Chris Bradley3 A multitude of recent studies have detailed microplastic concentrations in aquatic and terrestrial environments, although questions remain over their ultimate fate. At present, few studies have detailed microplastic characteristics and abundance along a freshwater–marine interface, and considerable uncertainties remain over the modelled contribution of terrestrial and riverine microplastic to the world’s oceans. In this article, for the frst time, we detail sedimentary microplastic concentrations along a River–Sea transect from the lower reaches of a major continental river, the River Danube, through the Danube Delta, the Black Sea coast to the Romanian and Bulgarian inner shelf of the Black Sea. Our results indicate that isolated areas of the Danube Delta are still relatively pristine, with few microplastic particles in some of the sediments sampled.
